Description
A girl with grit, determination, passion and a paintbrush-can achieve amazing things!
Whether working in his studio or out in the field, Japanese artist Hokusai had a constant companion-his youngest daughter, Eijo. Wherever they went, Eijo brought along her own bag of brushes and the same artistic brilliance and passion as her dad. Hokusai's Daughter tells the story of a clever girl who refuses to believe that only men can create great works of art.
